The FBI already had a source inside the Trump campaign, a whistleblower.
Russia was deep into Trump’s campaign, though we knew that.
Something deeply fucked up was going on at the FBI in October, 2016.
This Simpson guy’s entire career depends on producing real information. “Opposition research” is a tricky term, but info is useless to guys like him if it isn’t true.
(Note: That is not what he discovered.)
Steele is very good at that. It’s what he does.
The answers disturbed them both enough that they felt obligated to go to the FBI.
In fact, it’s not a dossier: it’s stuff he was sending to Simpson - stuff he thought was credible - as he was learning it.
Not unless you have reason to believe that the outlandish, obvious lie is in fact true.
